He's the cover star for Esquire and in an exclusive interview Gareth Bale tells the magazine, that for him, Spanish soccer is where it's at.

Bale, who is the centre of international speculation over whether he'll leave Spurs for Real Madrid for an offer of £85m plus, adds:

"I’d say that Spanish football is probably the best I’ve seen. Obviously I’d like to try other leagues in the future,” he goes on. “Every player would like to get as high as they can and try different things. It’s something that the future holds and it’s something that I’m very interested to try."
